It takes a couple games but you get the hang of it :slight_smile: I usually just copy paste my previous turn and fill it in with the new turn’s stuff, use the spreadsheets to track my deck state, and the posts to track everything else XD GL HF @Chronopolize I’ll be happy to offer advice any time you ask for it!

Starting a bit soft with Rich Earth to hopefully make the game last longer, gives more interesting experience to a new player. Thought about wisp in elite so it would trade with the dog, and then realized Zane would just take the one damage. Rather get back to card even and take a bad gold trade, I’ll be okay for gold :wink:

Thanks! The spreadsheet output is a little finicky, so I think I’ll follow how you do it.

Let’s try out bloodburn this game. I think it will encourage hero play from green.
I didn’t tech to denonate off the spot, which I’m sort of worried about. But I guess it’s like a second worker that costs 2 and lasts for ~5 turns. There should be ways to gain that advantage back.

I like where this went, I knew I’d have a good shot to react to what I drew with Young Treant (I was 60% to draw into my non-teched cards, and even if I did draw one I was okay just definitely drawing the other next turn). Now I can either Centaur + Tech 2 next turn, or Murkwood and bleed his cards.

My Thoughts

I was thinking of getting Flame Arrow in preparation for a 2v2 hero war, but you didn’t get a hero this turn.
Fire Dart doesn’t hit heros, and ember can’t hit a non-patrolling unit. (thinking those 4/4 tigers or an elephant). Chaos Mirror is a little worse without me having little dudes, but it seems solid potential against both heros and units even into tech 3.

I’m planning to go Fire spec and Doubleshot Archers, while holding the front with 3/3’s.
At tech 2, I’m planning to go for Drakk in preperation for a Molting Pheonix + Brakk Combo

I think this is a copy-paste of your last turn? I’m not sure what your turn 3 is :wink:

Fixed it (hopefully)! Gosh this formatting. I tried to edit my post to make it the same format as yours but got lost somewhere. I’ll be sure to grab the bb code after this game, or from another thread.

Happy to send it to you, unfortunately you can’t use bloodburn twice in one turn though :confused:

My bad, totally missed that one :expressionless:.
Edited the turn.

My Thoughts

Was going for the chaos mirror + haste unit to be easily able to blow out a Oversized Rhino +hero play, but didn’t get it. Not the end of the world, though. Just will have to sit tight for a turn. I’m worried about the next turn, I could get hero sniped by a max’d midori. Drawing a steal or archer would be alright, but drawing a haste card the turn after would be crushing. Though, even in that case I have sufficient anti-air to stave off midori.

No worries, copy paste errors happen all the time, there’s a lot of state to update each turn!

Btw, you’ll want to list your tech 1 and its HP in your board state, so it doesn’t look weird to spectators when you create a Firebat or go to tech 2 :slight_smile:

I think I’m toast now.

Didn’t recognize the maintain strategy of growth tech…or how decks threaten win conditions. If I had a Chaos Mirror, I could have wiped board and kept the game even. Even suiciding zane into flame arrow could have been an option.

Really interesting how many options there are for each side.

Apologies, my deck is at 5 cards before this turn, not 3

I’m going to assume your other firebat is in Technician, even though it’s listed in both Elite and Technician

Toast~

No worries on the delay :slight_smile: if that’s all the defense you have though I think this is game over on the board, wisp kills madman, my other three units deal 25 to base?

GG WP man!

Yup, that’s match. One-shotted :grin: Good game and thanks for playing with me!
Nice patrol on T3 btw.

Would you mind sending me a copy of the bb code you use for your posts? That layout’s rad.

On the game: I think I shouldn’t have felt the need to attack so much on turns 2 and 3. Giving you more cards sped up growth a lot. I was afraid of getting semi-board wiped like with ferocity, but in hindsight, after that, green can’t really keep up the attack on t1 (it won’t get very far). I really see the appeal of stealth now. Think you do want one of stealth attackers or Flame arrows to take out heros or engines.

I think the big mistake for you was on turn 5, right after I had gotten my Ancient down.

Growth takes a good amount of time to get going if you can keep green’s board relatively devoid of units (since I have no haste, I can’t get MoLaC activated without units surviving a turn). If you had cleared out some of my board there, and rushed for tech 3 anarchy, you likely would have been able to use monkeys to keep me low on units, and then won a base race with Gunships.

I’m not sure where Fire’s place is against Green, probably most effective against T1 + Hero pushes, where the green player is spamming frogs with Murkwood Allies. Bamstamper and Archers hasted from Drakk would probably be okay as well though!

GG WP, happy to play another any time :slight_smile:

Sorry I missed the request for my turn format; here it is!
